Advantages of
the Aberdeen AD facility to the Community
- Treats city food waste locally, reducing “waste miles” and carbon-footprint of our waste management.
- Diverts waste from going to landfill and potentially polluting the air, soil and water.
- Safely treats material such as food waste to eliminate potential health hazards including food-poisoning microorganisms such as Salmonella etc.
- Generates valuable 100% renewable energy as “green gas”: replacing equivalent fossil fuel natural gas.
- Creates liquids and solids that can be applied as natural, beneficial fertilizer for soil improvement and crop production.
ALL OF THIS creates a ‘circular’ project in the City, taking waste and making something useful and valuable: benefiting us all!
